What is a Bicycle Station?
A bicycle station is a secure, indoor bicycle parking facility designed to meet your transportation needs. The Bicycle Station at Union Station includes a change room, a mechanic stand and a variety of tools for customer use as well as a vending machine with emergency bike necessities such as tubes, tire levers, patch kits, energy bars and refreshing beverages. Security measures include a "man-trap" door system to prevent people following others into the station, 24 hour video surveillance as well as staffed hours during the day. The Bicycle Station is also a great place to get information on bicycling, walking and public transit in Toronto. The Bicycle Stations many features make it easier than ever to ride your bicycle in Toronto.

Future Locations
The City of Toronto is planning a number of future Bicycle Stations across Toronto toward supporting one main goal of the Toronto Bike Plan: to double the number of bicycle trips made in the city by 2011.

Prominent locations for 2011 include the City Hall Bicycle Station which will include approximately four hundred parking spots as well as showers. There will also be a number of Bicycle Stations built at TTC subway stations across the system map. The Bicycle Station lifetime membership will count towards every City of Toronto Bicycle Station.
